(RIVERHEAD, NY, May 8, 2013) – East End Arts is thrilled to announce the 2013 Teeny Awards Nominees. Theatrical productions presented by the 17 participating East End high schools have been attended and reviewed by a panel of volunteer judges. Evaluations of student performances were based on skills demonstrated in Movement (physical expression, gesture, posture, fluidity), Delivery (projection, articulation, interaction, timing, expression), and Stage Presence (confident, believable, enthusiastic, charismatic, dynamic). Evaluations of performances in Musical Productions also include skills in Singing (intonation, range, interpretation, phrasing, rhythm, articulation, ensemble work) and Dancing (technique, fluidity, expression, gesture, ensemble work). The Teeny Awards, conceived from the idea of the Antoinette Perry Awards – The Tony Awards – for Broadway shows, has been celebrating excellence in high school theater across the East End of Long Island since 2002, and is presented and coordinated by East End Arts.

The top five scoring students are the nominees. A formal awards ceremony is scheduled for Sunday, June 9, 2013 at Southold Junior-Senior High School, hosted by award-winning broadcaster, producer, host and interviewer, Bonnie Grice, during which the winners will be announced. The 11th-Annual Teeny Awards ceremony is open to the public. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit http://www.eastendarts.org/programs/events/teeny-ceremony.html. Tickets are $20 in advance (must purchase by 5 PM on June 7), and $25 at the door. Southold Junior-Senior High School is located at 420 Oaklawn Avenue in Southold, NY.

This award is for a particular scene, musical number, dance number, or group that the judges feel stands out enough to warrant special recognition. This year, the recipient is The Greek Chorus from Shelter Island’s Legally Blonde.

This award recognizes the efforts of a school that goes above and beyond to support exceptional theatre arts education. This year,Bridgehampton High School is being recognized for its production of “A Night on Broadway: A Musical Revue,” which was a non-book musical written, performed and produced by its students and volunteer staff. This is the first theatrical production in the school, and, we hope, will be the first of many.

Health Alert: 2018 had the largest vaping increase among High School students according to an annual study of teen smoking, drinking, and drug use. Nicotine is a heavily addictive chemical that can be as difficult to give up as heroin. The tobacco industry has found a manipulative way to target teenagers once again and get them hooked on nicotine addiction. #followthemoney This is a must read article and you need to have a conversation with your teenagers and the dangers of vaping. #teensvaping ...

On 11/29 I posted Why can't the public see the audit analysis of the district’s business and financial practices? The Superintendent was holding back releasing the draft letter indicating there were some inaccuracies that needed to be corrected.

The Sag Harbor School District Superintendent has declined to release the letter based on its “draft” status but a copy was anonymously sent to The Sag Harbor Express this week.

My questions is why haven't the District filed 2015, 2016 and 2017 on Special Ed reimbursements to the tune of over $300 thousand dollars? This $300k can be used so many different ways. #sagharborschoolnews #yourthoughts ... See MoreSee Less
